Something I realized would make things much better, can these patches 
and along with the QAT and zlib patches actually go into master and then 
be backported into fido?

This will then keep master current and allow easier update/upgrade 
pathes for dpdk, qat and associated work.  This is the get stuff in 
master upstream first and then backport?

Would this be possible?

Sau!
